I had hoped that by late today the vest I finished up would be done drying on the blocking board but the weather has been damp all day and nothing is drying. Its a good day to be a goose.
So the vest isn't dry enough to take off the board and the current project isn't far enough along yet to be sure its going to turn out as planned so here's a bit of knitting related sewing.
See, I have way too many double point needles and the fact that I've been trying to cram them all into one needle case has upset the needle case so much so that it has officially burst its seams.
Instead of buying a new case or resorting to carrying all my dpns in a sandwich bag or something similar I figured I'd dig into all those fat quarters I've been collecting and just make myself one (or 2 or 4).
A few fat quarters, a piece of heavy wool felt, and some bias strip makers should do the job. Maybe I'll make a few. Maybe I'll share.
I wanna see too. I've just purchased some fat quarters to make little project bags for my knitting (or big project bags!) Now I need to dust off the sewing machine! (P.S. My dpns are in a makeup brush carrier like a stand-up tube from CVS.)

I wish I had that problem...I'm hoping I have the right size DPNs for my Lily sleeves!
